Fluorosulfonyl-containing heterocyclic compounds

Depending on the conditions, -hydrohexafluoroisobutyric anhydride, hexafluorodimethylketene, or hexafluoroisobutenylidene sulfate is formed in the sulfotrioxidation of -hydrohexafluoroisobutyric acid. The sulfotrioxidation of -hydrohexafluoroisobutyric anhydride similarly gives hexafluorodimethylketene or hexafluoroisobutenylidene sulfate.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 13–15, January, 1973.

Quinindines

3-Acyl-4-methyl-1,2-dihydro-4H--quinindines (VI and III) were obtained by acylation of 1,2-dihydro-4H--quinindine (I), obtained from -quinindane methiodide (IV) by the action of alkali with acid chlorides or anhydrides. The IR and UV spectra of these ketones were studied. Quaternary salt V is formed by treatment of I with excess aliphatic acid anhydride.See [1] for communication III.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 87–90, January, 1971.     

Cyclization of O-benzoyl-β-piperidinopropionamidoximes to form 5-phenyl-3-(β-piperidino)ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles

The reactions of -piperidinopropionamidoxime with substituted benzoyl chlorides afforded O-benzoylation products, which underwent cyclization to form 5-phenyl-3-(-piperidino)ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles upon heating in dimethylformamide in the presence of molecular sieves at 60 °C for 1—2.5 h. Heating of O-benzoyl--piperidinopropionamidoxime in dimethylformamide in the presence of K₂CO₃ at 85 °C for 4 h afforded a mixture of 5-phenyl-3-(-piperidino)ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole, benzoic acid, and N-(-piperidino)ethylurea.     

Thermal decomposition of silver cyano complex and characterization its decomposition products by ETA,DSC, DTA and TG

It was found by DTA and TG that [Phenyl₂I][Ag(CN)₂] in the solid state is chemically stable on heating in argon up to 160°C. During heating to higher temperatures it decomposes, forming volatile products such as [Phenyl]I, [Phenyl]NC and (CN)₂ [1]. After heating the sample to 500°C metallic silver resulted. The volatile and intermediate solid products were analysed by IR-spectroscopy.It was found by means of DTA and ETA that an isophase reversible transition takes place when the sample is heated and cooled, not higher than 100°C. At heating higher than 100°C the sample melts (melting pointT _m=135°C). The enthalpy melting was determined by means of DSC (H=–28 kJ·mol^–1).By means of ETA the disorder degree of the final decomposition product was estimated. The value of the activation energy of radon diffusion in the temperature range 720°–500°C equals 32.6 kJ·mol^–1.Dedicated to Prof. I. N. Bekman Moscow State University at the occasion of his 50th birthday     

Molecular Light Scattering and Orientational Pair Correlations of Molecules in Liquid Chloro‐ and Bromobenzenes

Integral intensities and degrees of depolarization of molecular light scattering were measured for chlorobenzene, bromobenzene, ochlorotoluene, and o and mdichlorobenzenes in the temperature range 20–80° at 5° intervals. After the isotropic and anisotropic components of light scattering had been isolated, the isothermal compressibility and angular correlation function, respectively, were calculated. For all compounds under study, the temperature dependences of the above characteristics have some special features in the range 40–50°, which may be explained by variation in the local structure of liquids in the stated temperature range.     

Carbon-13 kinetic isotope effects in the decarbonylation of liquid formic acid of natural isotopic composition initiated by phosphorus pentoxide

The isotopic composition of the consecutive fractions of carbon monoxide produced in the decarbonylation of liquid formic acid of natural isotopic composition initiated by addition of phosphorus pentoxide has been measured in the temperature interval 19–100°C and the observed gradual decrease of the _PDB values and the increase of thek ₁₂/k ₁₃ ratio of the isotopic specific rate constants (KIE values) for each next fraction of CO have been interpreted in terms of conclusions presented in the first paper from this series¹ concerning the decarbonylation of HCOOH (F.A.) in concentrated and diluted with water phosphoric acid media. The initial fast dehydration of F.A. by phosphoric anhydride, P₂O₅, proceeds at room temperture with about 1% carbon-13 KIE. The (k ₁₂/k ₁₃) values increase with time, as the decarbonylation slows down due to the hydration of phosphorus pentoxide with water generated in dehydration of HCOOH and reach the plateau values characteristic for each reaction temperature. These increasing very slowly with reaction times at intermediate temperatures maximum values of (k ₁₂/k ₁₃) ratios are quite close to values of¹³C KIE observed in the decarbonylation of pure F.A. (k ₁₂/k ₁₃=1.0443 at 81°C). Addition of water to liquid F.A. at 90°C and at 100°C caused the further increase of the¹³C KIE. The detailed discussion of the¹³C KIE in the HCOOH–P₂O₅ system has been given.     

Kinetics and mechanisms of oxidations by metal ions. Part IX(1) Oxidation of phenylphosphinic acid by chromic acid in perchlorate medium

Summary The kinetics of chromic acid oxidation of phenylphosphinic acid to phenylphosphonic acid has indicated the formation of an anhydride between HCrO ₄ ^– and phenylphosphinic acid in its active PhP(OH)₂ and inactive PhPH(O)OH forms. The ambiguity about the reactive form of phenylphosphinic acid arises from the fact that protonation of the anhydride leads to the same transition state which disproportionates in the rate-determining step to phosphonium ion and chromium(IV). These, through different reactions in the fast step, yield phenylphosphonic acid and chromium(III) as the final products. That HCrO ₄ ^– is the reactive species of chromium(VI) is confirmed by the fact that k₀ is independent of the inital [Cr^VI] where k₀ is defined by the Equation k₀=k_obs[Cr^VI]/[HCrO ₄ ^– ]; k_obs is the pseudo first-order rate constant with respect to chromium(VI) ([Phenyl-phosphinic acid][Cr^VI]).The plot between k₀ and [H⁺] passes through the origin indicating that the reaction does not occur in the absence of H⁺-ions. Furthermore, the plot between log k₀ and –H₀, the Hammett acidity function, is linear with a slope value of 1.02±0.02 confirming the protonation of the anhydride prior to its rate-limiting disproportionation.The equilibrium constant for the anhydride formation and the composite rate constant kK, K is the protonation constant of anhydride, are reported. The equilibrium constant is almost independent of temperature.Sen Gupta and Chakaladar⁽³⁾ reported values of 8.5, 9.2, 11, 12 and 13, respectively, at 26°, 30.4°, 36°, 39.4° and 46° C. The uncertainty limits were not reported. Nevertheless it is apparent from the data that the values are not greatly influenced by temperature. The statistical mean is 11±2 dm³ mol^–1, in fair agreement with our values.

Zusammenfassung Durch potentiometrische und konduktometrische Titrationen wird die genaue Zusammensetzung des Komplexes untersucht, der sich aus Thallium(I) und -Mercaptopropionsäure in wäßriger 0,1m-KNO₃-Lösung bildet. Es zeigt sich, daß Thallium nur einen einzigen Komplex bildet. Er ist farblos, hat die Molzusammensetzung 11 und liegt besonders im pH-Bereich 9,0–10,5 vor. Durch Anwendung der vonCalvin undMelchior erweiterten Meßmethode vonBjerrum wird für drei verschiedene Temperaturen der Wert der Komplexbildungskonstante bestimmt. Als Werte für logK ergaben sich bei 20° 2,775, bei 30° 2,850 und bei 40° 2,935. Die Werte der thermodynamischen Zustandsfunktionen berechnen sich für die Komplexbildung zu G=–3,95 kcal/Mol, H=–3,34 kcal/Mol und S=+2,01 cal/grad.

The precise nature of the complex formation between Thallium(I) and -mercaptopropionic acid in aqueous 0.1M-KNO₃ has been investigated by potentiometric and conductometric titration techniques. It was found that Tl(I) forms only one, 11, colourless complex predominating at pH 9.0–10.5. The stability constant of the complex has been determined by applyingCalvin andMelchior's extention ofBjerrum's method at three different temperatures. The logK values were found to be 2.775, 2.850 and 2.935 at 20, 30 and 40° C respectively. The thermodynamic functions of complexation, G, H and S were also evaluated at 30° C and found to be –3.95 K-cal/mole, –3.34 K-cal/mole and +2.01 Cal/deg. respectively.

Thermodynamics of the Second Dissociation Constant of N-tris[Hydroxymethyl]-4-amino-butanesulfonic Acid (TABS) from 5 to 55°C

N-tris[Hydroxymethyl]-4-aminobutanesulfonic acid (TABS) has been investigated for the determination of the values of the second dissociation constant, pK ₂, in water at 12 temperatures in the range 5–55°C, including 37°C. This zwitterionic compound is useful as a secondary pH standard in the range of pH (7–9) for physiological applications. The electromotive force (emf) measurements have been carried out using a hydrogen gas electrode and a silver–silver chloride electrode. The values of pK ₂ are fitted as a function of temperature with the following results: pK ₂ = 1671.305/T+14.8737–2.04383 ln T, where T is the thermodynamic temperature in Kelvins. The experimental values of pK ₂ are 8.834 ± 0.0005 and 8.539 ± 0.0004 at 25 and 37°C, respectively. The related thermodynamic quantities, G°, H°, S°, and C _p ° characterizing the dissociation process have been derived from the pK ₂ and its temperature coefficients.     

Fulfillment of the Conditions of Thermodynamic Equilibrium in an Ice/Electrolyte Solution System with Constrained Geometry

For small volumes of a NaCl solution (10^–6 cm³) with concentrations of 0.1 and 1 M, temperature dependences of the length lof solution columns frozen in thin quartz capillaries (5–10 m in radius) are obtained. At the temperatures t above –4 and –8°C (for 0.1 and 1 M solutions, respectively), the l(t) dependences are reversible, independent of the direction of changes in temperature, and, hence, correspond to the equilibrium conditions of ice/solution system. From the constant mass condition of the solute, an expression for l(t) is derived that includes only one thermodynamic characteristic, namely, the temperature dependence of the solution concentration in equilibrium with ice. Deviations from the calculated l(t) dependences are observed at a temperatures below –2 and –5°C (for 0.1 and 1 M solutions, respectively), which can be explained by the adhesion of frozen solution to the capillary walls. The arising internal stresses lead to the deviations from the thermodynamic equilibrium conditions known for the bulk systems. On approaching the melting zone, the adhesion is failed because of the formation of thin nonfreezing water interlayers on the quartz surface.     

Analogs of D(+)-pantothenic acid. V. Synthesis and investigation of the structure of N-pantoyl derivatives of proline

Complexation of uranium(VI) by salicylate and substituted salicylates: A kinetic study

Summary Kinetic studies on the complexation of uranium(VI) by salicylate and various substituted salicylates have been carried out using the stopped-flow spectrophotometric technique at pH 7.0–8.5 (NH₄OH+NH₄NO₃ buffer). Results are in conformity with a mechanism involving binding of UO₂OH⁺ species through the carboxylate group of the salicylate to form an inner-sphere species in a fast equilibrium (equilibrium constant=K) followed by a slow rate-determining ring closure (rate constant=k) involving loss of a molecule of water between the OH group bound to uranium(VI) and the phenolic group of the salicylate. The value of the equilibrium constant (K) obtained from the kinetic data in the case of 5-sulphosalicylate (log K=3.21 at 25 °C, I=1 M) is compatible with the literature thermodynamic value (log K = 3.89 at 25 °C, I=0.015 M). Increase in pH retards the reaction due to the equilibrium, UO₂OH⁺ + OH^– UO₂(OH)₂, the UO₂(OH)₂ being unreactive. The average value of K (log K=8.58 at 25°C, I=1M) obtained kinetically from the results of investigation with different ligands is also in good agreement with the literature thermodynamic value (log K= 8.8 at 25°C, I=0.1M). Both K and k are sensitive to the nature of the substituent in the benzene ring, decreasing with increasing acidity of the -CO₂H group of the salicyclic acid; the substituent effect is well demonstrated by the plot of log kversus _L (where ), which is linear. H^# and S^# values corresponding to k have been evaluated in each case. S^# values are all negative in conformity with ring closure in the rate-determining step.     

Theoretical studies of [n]paracyclophanes and their valence isomers

Summary The valence isomerisations of benzene, [6]- and [7]paracyclophane to their Dewar benzene and prismane isomers are studied with the MNDO method using the unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) and the configuration interaction (C.I.) approximations. The enthalpy of the reaction Dewar benzene benzene is H° _r =–68.9 kcal/mol and the activation enthalpy is H°=27.9 kcal/mol (with C.I.). The reaction path hasC _2v symmetry.The determination of several points of the lowest potential energy surface of [6]- and [7]paracyclophanes leads to a minimum reaction path having the same topology as for the potential energy surface of the nonbridged benzene. The only difference is a quantitative change in the energy values of the aromatic isomers due to the deformation introduced by the alkyl chain. For [6]paracyclophane, the activation enthalpy is H°=24.6 kcal/mol and the activation entropy is S ⁰=0.6 cal K^–1 mol^–1 calculated with C.I.The enthalpy of the reaction prismane Dewar benzene is H° _r –32 kcal/mol and the activation enthalpy is H°19 kcal/mol. The highest molecular symmetry group common to both molecules isC _2v , whereas the symmetry group of the reaction path is lowered toC _s . Along this reaction path is located a biradicaloid intermediate, separated by low activation barriers from the products. No significant changes of the potential energy surfaces are found for the bridged [n]prismanes and the [n]Dewar benzenes.All the calculated values, reaction enthalpies, activation enthalpies and entropies, are in a good agreement with literature experimental data.This article is dedicated to Professor A.

Positron annihilation in polyvinylalcohol doped with CuCl2

Positron annihilation lifetime spectra were measured forpolyvinylalcohol (PVA) doped with CuCl₂ (0.5 to 5.0 wt%) at temperature range from room temperature to 160°C. For a fresh pure PVA (without annealing) ₃ belowT _g was larger in the heating runs than in the cooling runs, but aboveT _g, ₃ was the same for both runs. The larger ₃ values in the heating run were considered to be due to the existence of strain brought forth in the process of preparation. For annealed pure PVA ₃ was the same for the heating and the cooling runs andT _g was shifted to lower temperature, 88 and 80°C for fresh and annealed samples, respectively. This shift was attributed to loss of H-bonded water in the annealed pure PVA by heating above 100°C. BothI ₃ ⁰ and ₃ were decreased by the added CuCl₂, being interpreted as the result of inhibition and quenching, respectively. The results show that both the inhibition coefficient and the quenching rate constantk were smaller than the corresponding values in liquids. The small diffusion constant ofo-Ps estimated fromk implies thato-Ps is not very mobile in the polymer.

Oxygen replacement by fluorine in carbonyl derivatives of perfluoroaromatic compounds and isomerization of perfluoroindan-1,3-dione to perfluoro-3-methylenephthalide under the action of HF/SbF5

When acted upon by HF/SbF₅ at 95 °C, carbonyl groups of perfluorinated acetophenone (10), 3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one (8), 2,3-dihydronaphthalene-1,4-dione (9), benzocyclobutenone (6), benzocyclobutenedione (7) and indan-1-one (1) are converted into difluoromethylene groups to give the corresponding perfluoroaromatic products. Perfluoroindan-2-one (5), under the same conditions, is transformed to bis(perfluoroindan-2-yl) ether (21). On heating with HF/SbF₅, perfluoroindan-1,3-dione (2) isomerizes into perfluoro-3-methylenephthalide (4) at 95 °C, and gives 4,5,6,7-tetrafluoro-3-trifluoromethyl-phthalide (14) at 130 °C. Compound 4 in the absence of a solvent dimerizes giving perfluorodispiro[phthalide-3,1′-cyclobutane-2′,3″-phthalide] (18), and when heated with SbF₅ at 130 °C, it is converted into perfluoro-3-methylphthalide (3). When acted upon by HF/SbF₅ at 95 °C, perfluorinated benzoic acid (12) and phthalic anhydride (13) give the corresponding products with trifluoromethyl groups.
